Daniela Walrath
Chief People Officer, QinetiQ US
As QinetiQ acquired a mid-sized company and began the integration process, Daniela Walrath’s top priority was delivering a business strategy focused on the human capital agenda, with an emphasis on employee experience and culture.
This effort was heavily centered around the total value the company offered its employees, with a strong focus on the integrated talent management experience, benefits harmonization and employee resource groups so employees could not just continue to build their career and see QinetiQ US as an employer of choice, but also be in an environment where they felt they belonged.
Sitting at the core of QinetiQ’s HR Processes is a recently built, future-oriented, harmonized career framework that supports the business strategy, career progression market trends and needs of the growing employee population.
